Waiting on Wednesday 06/02/21

Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme that first originated at Breaking the Spine but has since linked up with “Can’t Wait Wednesday” at Wishful Endings now that the original creator is unable to host it anymore. Either way, this fun feature is a chance to showcase the upcoming releases that we can’t wait to get our hands on!

Mogsy’s Pick

Dead Silence by S.A. Barnes (January 25, 2022 by Nightfire Books)

Whew, after a month of fantasy-filled Wyrd & Wonder, let’s catch a breather with an upcoming sci-fi release, of the “in space, no one can hear you scream” variety. From Nightfire, Tor’s new horror imprint, this one sounds like a real nail-biter.

“The Aurora, a luxury space-liner destined for a cruise of the solar system, has been missing for twenty years. Among the hundreds of presumed dead were passengers from society’s finest – celebrities, tech giants, influencers. Every last one… vanished.

So when Claire’s crew picks up an emergency signal in deep space, the long-lost Aurora is the last ship they expect to find. The salvage claim could be their best chance at extraordinary wealth, but it might mean missing their transport back home, and nobody can stand another minute out in the darkest corner of the universe – nobody, except Claire.

Once onboard the ship, the crew realizes something is terribly wrong. Unspeakable horrors lurk in every shadow of the massive ship, and soon they each start experiencing violent hallucinations.

Claire must fight to keep her sanity and get her crew back to safety – before they all meet the same ghastly fate as the Aurora passengers.”

  2. I think I’ve seen more movies of the horror in space variety than I’ve read books. Perhaps it’s time to begin changing that. 🙂
